In truth I never really liked any of the heavy drugs, because normally my energy is up when I'm performing, and that's about it. Cocaine is nothing new. It's the pressure, I think.

Robin Williams
After I quit drinking, I realized I am the same asshole I always was I just have fewer dents in my car.
Robin Williams
If we're going to fight a disease, let's fight one of the most terrible diseases of all, indifference.
Robin Williams
Stand-up is the place where you can do things that you could never do in public.

To make fun of an administration, to make fun of anything, Mark Twain said, is the last defense of democracy.
Robin Williams

Robin Williams
Divorce is expensive. I used to joke they were going to call it 'all the money,' but they changed it to 'alimony.' It's ripping your heart out through your wallet.
